Vu, have you tried using the 2nd hole on front and rear post? I'm fairly happy with seating posture with the 3rd hole front and rear just wanting to sit slightly lower.

I have. It does work, but the 2nd hole in the front leans it too far forward for my tastes and offers a little less thigh support.

Casey, that's what happens when you let other people install parts on your car. I only trust certain peorple to work on my car if I can't do it. Just take it out and do it the way you want it.

I definitely trust Joey to work on my car (he and his partner did my brakes last night). I was fine with BJ working on the seat because I knew I would be tinkering with the seating position and buckle in the near future anyways. My main goal for last night was to get the new seat in the car and the old seat out. I'm planning on going to a friend's garage on Friday afternoon and re-angling the seat to my preference. I'm thankful that you, Vu, and chetley have done alot of the trial and error, and that will help us on Friday for the final adjustments.

I don't trust my self working on my car. My main skills, mechanically, consist of cross threading bolts, stripping bolts, and breaking plastic clips. My dad has all the right tools in our garage from his race mechanic days, but that particular gene of being mechanically competent didn't surface in his son.

My dad raced boats not cars. Lol. I've never driven a boat before. So I'm relying on indirect inheritance here. I did inherit my s tho.

Thanks, I'll have to at around with it. Not sure if keeping the front on the 3rd and going to the 2nd on the back would lean the seat back to much for my taste or not, just wanted to make sure I'd still be able to slide the seat forwards and backwards and not have it hit anything...
